CultureID Insights

Too many leaders leave their company culture up to chance. It takes an intentional and focused approach to keep employees connected, present, and engaged. At CultureID, we are on a mission to give leaders the tools they need to make their dream work environment become a reality.? www.cultureid.com

Living Our Values: At CultureID, we don’t just talk about innovation and growth—we embody it. In the latest Leadership Lab Newsletter, Don Rheem, our CEO, explores how we've shifted from a narrative of "mistakes happen" to "failing forward" to, now, one of meaningful evolution and discovery. Here, every idea is valued, every experiment is a step forward, and every team member plays a crucial role in our journey. So tell us, how can we help you live your values out loud?

Thank you to CPAmerica, Inc., for partnering with us and selecting us as one of your preferred providers! We’re eager to assist as many member firms as possible in achieving their ideal company culture through our science-based, dual approach. This includes (1) gathering insights through carefully crafted surveys, and (2) providing leaders with educational resources to strategically respond to this feedback.

"Fail Smart." "Fail Forward." "Fail Up." I'm rethinking the use of the term "failure" at all, even in contexts meant to motivate. Why acknowledge a concept that only serves to diminish our efforts and growth? Furthermore, "failure" often implies finality – a fixed mindset suggesting that if you didn’t achieve your intended outcome, you're out of options. But if learning, growing, and continuous improvement are natural parts of an individual's very existence, on the job and off, then failure in its traditional sense becomes impossible. In my own vocabulary and CultureID, our language and mindset reflects a more constructive perspective. Here, trying is celebrated daily. Be it a new idea, solution, or approach, every attempt is valued. Each step, whether it leads to the desired outcome or not, signifies progress. We don't 'fail forward' – we evolve. If an attempt doesn't achieve our end goal, we appreciate the effort and think, "Good to know. Glad we tried." We don’t discard these ideas either; a slight tweak could be exactly what's needed later to enhance our client experiences or streamline our processes. Every outcome is seen as a chance to learn and improve, free from the stigma of not being "enough". How does language shape your team's perception of effort? How can we, as leaders, foster a culture that celebrates the many ways that progress can look? At CultureID, we're constantly celebrating the innovation and creativity that our mindset breeds. Let me know what you think.
